Last / take
Message from jennhsg posted on 19-05-2012 at 03:52:34 (D | E | F)
Hello,

Can you help me please because these words really get me confused as I can't find the difference.
context lengh, duration of sth.
Ex: the meeting will last/take no more than half an hour
the trip lasts/take two hour
It last/take me 20minutes to get there.

Please help me.
Thank you in advance

Hello.
Your third example is incorrect. You can say it takes/will take me 20 minutes to get there, but that sentence with last doesn't work. Have a nice weekend. Sherry
